Ok. I know Accutane use to a certain period is possible DQ but what about antibiotics (Tetracycline, etc.)? I just did my DoDMERB with my flight surgeon today and, since that these guys are pretty experienced physicians for personnel with flying status, he suggested that I should treat my acne before heading out to Air Force Academy. He did not mention this in his examination notes but he did mention I have moderate cystic acne and that it caused no problem in putting my Gask Mask on or my Oxygen Mask during a T-38 incentive flight. I understand that severe acne is possible DQ. Am I correct at that one? I am just worried whether I start my treatment now while waiting for my DoDMERB results or if I should even be treated at all with antibiotics if I do end up LOA'd for the Academy?
Any advice on this one
